only stayed for a night there but it was great, actually had the entire day on Monday to enjoy SD and half of Tuesday! The hotel has a great location about 5 minutes walk to Horton Plaza which really has everything you could want. Very comfortable and Westin is always a good choice. Good price too for downtown San Diego...

My family spent an awesome week in San Diego. The Westin was amazing and I would recommend this hotel. Juan and Marites made our day with their helpful and happy service. The breakfast buffet was top notch.

Everyone was extremely friendly and made my business trip stress-free. I was especially impressed by Melissa in the bar. There was a huge conference at the hotel and the bar was packed every night. Melissa was constantly running back and forth to keep up, yet she never was grouchy or frazzled. Extremely attentive, friendly and warm. This hotel is lucky...

After a long flight, I was very tired and only had 30 minutes to prepare for my work meeting. Despite my crankiness, the staff was kind and able to check me in early which allowed me to get refreshed. All of the staff (bar, banquet hall, front desk-Beca, concierge-Eric, room cleaning) were enthusiastic, polite, and always ready to assist. The...

The only downside is the parking. Other than that, I definitely recommend this hotel! Everything is walking distance. Great customer service when checking in, wish I would've remembered her name (whoever was working Saturday afternoon Feb 21st, young girl). Nice, clean hotel, very spacious!! Loved it. Thanks :)

Loved this Westin in San Diego over the one in the Gaslight district. It seems newer, fresher, and more hip. Our upgraded room looked towards the city and was lovely and spacious. The lobby is open and modern. We liked that it is close to Little Italy and actually preferred that section of town to the Gaslight district. Loved the...

As a 30 yr Captain for United Airlines, I think i'm qualified to judge great service when I experience it . My recent stay at the hotel was made even better by the great service and friendliness I was shown by two exceptional Westin employees. Juan in the hotel restaurant and Zullema also of the restaurant. Both treated me like...

I arrived close to 1a after severe weather delayed my flight only to find the hotel had given my room away. This after I booked three months before my arrival, called a week before to confirm and...

AGQueens-I was disappointed to read about your experience. Unfortunately this was one of the very rare cases that we had to arrange accommodation at another hotel. We hope you understand this is not our policy and we would have loved for you to join us for the duration of your stay. I’m glad to see the team offered additional compensation...

We had a wonderful experience staying at the Westin over Valentine's Day. My husband surprised me with champagne and strawberries and chocolate provided by Yasmin, who made it all happen. The staff also placed rose petals throughout our room and strategically placed a heart onto our King sized bed. It was perfect! Thank you to Yasmin and the rest of...
